Transistioning to Seam

Thanks to Brian for his excellent presentation on Seam and EJB 3.
This meeting will be held at CSC's facility in East Hartford.
Abstract
This session will demonstrate the simplicity offered by Seam (JSR 299: WebBeans) by converting a JSF / EJB3.0 application to one which uses the Seam framework. We'll start with an introduction to Java EE 5 and EJB 3.0, covering new concepts such as annotations, dependency injection, persistence units and entity managers. We'll then work through the steps necessary to refactor a JSF / EJB 3.0 application to use the Seam framework, eliminating the need for our managed beans and access our EJBs directly from the view.
Presenter
Brian Leonard works as a senior software engineer with Sun Microsystems. Most of his Java experience is with application servers, working on Java EE servers before there was a standard. Lately, Brian has switched gears to evangelize the NetBeans open source IDE where he spends a good majority of his time speaking with developers around the world.
